West Ham matchwinner Bowen: I've never felt like this in my life

West Ham matchwinner Jarrod Bowen was full of pride after victory over Fiorentina in the Europa Conference League final.

The Hammers won 2-1 with Bowen scoring the decisive goal in the final minute.

He later said, "I obviously dreamed of scoring but to score the winner in the last minute. It's what you always say you want to do. To do it in front of these fans. I thought I was going to cry. I'm just happy.

"We had a dream, we haven't had the best season, myself included, but to give these fans this moment, I'm over the moon.

"I think in my position you make that run 10 times you might get that ball once. As soon as you get it you've got to put it away.

"Never [have I felt like this in my life]. This is the biggest game of my career. The emotion, there was time for one more chance. I'm just so happy. I'm over the moon.

"I'm thinking of the party tonight. Listen to it. Listen."
